Walked in off the street wanting to join a class whilst on holidays. First time going to a dojo not my original. Had a great time. Super inviting and coaches were super attentive and assisting.
Great atmosphere here, great place to learn new skills and improve fitness.
The instructor is the current world champ in both gi and no-gi. So clearly knows his stuff. All the instructors are legends.
A place that changes your life, improves your Jiu Jitsu skills and brings good people together.
One of a kind place and is right at your doorstep in the beautiful Byron Bay 🤍
If you are in Byron Bay and looking for Jiu-Jitsu heaven, get in touch with Kane, the manager at The Academy Martial Arts.
I had a fantastic time training BJJ there, nice mats, great coach and awesome sparring partners. (Apparently many world champs train there - Inspirational)
My daughter has been attending this gym 3 times a week for many years. Here, she has gained the foundations for future independence, confidence, resilience and has developed lovely friendships. Our experience has, and remains a memorable one. Thanks guys!
World class Jiu jitsu by a world champion athlete.
What an experience! Thalison’s teachings are a real mind opener even for the experienced jiujitero. If you love the sport, make sure The Academy Byron Bay is on your bucket list.
Highly recommended if you are in the area. Thalison is a world class athlete and teacher. You can't go wrong!
I've absolutely loved my experience at The Academy both on and off the mats. I arrived in Australia from the states about 7 months ago and started training immediately as a way to meet people and continue my training that I started back home. The gym is very clean and well kept and the staff and people who train there are amazing as well. The gym is full of friendly, talented people that quickly make you feel like family. There is also a diverse mix of people, locals and international as well as plenty of women to train with which is very important to me as well. Definitely worth checking out, you won't regret it!
